While in Grand Rapids for my lovely cousin’s lovely wedding, my family took a trip to Meijer Gardens. It’s a combination botanical garden and sculpture park, and the exhibit while we were there was of Dale Chihuly’s glass sculptures. It’s a pretty fun experience, actually – sort of like a treasure hunt to find all the sculptures that are hiding in the ponds, waterfalls, and fields. Or at least as many as you can manage before you melt from the heat.
